Walter Becker's pedalboard is in constant flux, but when we caught up with him it included a Sonic Research tuner, Barber Tone Press compressor, Eventide Pitch Factor, Eventide Space (which he uses only for reverb), Moog Moogerfooger MuRF, Pigtronix Envelope Phaser, Boss Noise Suppressor NS-2, and an MXR Carbon Copy. Next to his pedalboard is his Bogner channel switcher. He uses a Lehle 1at3 SGoS switcher to go between different amps and cabs."
